Psalms 142

142

A Plea for Relief from Persecutors

A #Ps. 35:8Contemplation of David. A Prayer #Ps. 32:titlewhen he was in the cave.

1I cry out to the Lord with my voice;

With my voice to the Lord I make my supplication.

2I pour out my complaint before Him;

I declare before Him my trouble.

3When my spirit was #1 Sam. 22:1; Ps. 57:titleoverwhelmed within me,

Then You knew my path.

In the way in which I walk

They have secretly #Ps. 77:3set a snare for me.

4Look on my right hand and see,

For there is no one who acknowledges me;

Refuge has failed me;

No one cares for my soul.

5I cried out to You, O Lord:

I said, “You are my refuge,

My portion in the land of the living.

6Attend to my cry,

For I am brought very low;

Deliver me from my persecutors,

For they are stronger than I.

7Bring my soul out of prison,

That I may #Ps. 141:9praise Your name;

The righteous shall surround me,

For You shall deal bountifully with me.”
